Cellular Aging and Consequences in Humans (Hardcover)

What if you could understand the intricate mechanisms that control how our cells age―and learn how to combat them? Cellular Aging and Consequences in Humans: Nutritional and Clinical Studies delivers a comprehensive exploration of cellular senescence and cutting-edge anti-aging strategies that may hold the key to healthier aging.

From the fundamental processes driving cellular aging to tissue-specific developments, this authoritative resource examines:

• The complex interplay between aging and disease
• Breakthrough research on senescence across different human tissues
• Revolutionary insights into age-related disorders
• Cutting-edge physiologic, cellular, molecular, and genetic studies

Whether you're a researcher, healthcare professional, or student, this essential reference provides the tools to understand―and potentially influence―the biology of aging at its most fundamental level. Expertly organized and thoroughly researched, it bridges the gap between theoretical concepts and practical applications in the field of cellular aging.

Advance your understanding of one of medicine's most compelling frontiers and discover how new insights into cellular senescence could transform our approach to aging and age-related diseases.

Dominique Meynial-Denis, PhD, studied Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University Paul Sabatier of Toulouse, France and earned her PhD on intermolecular interactions between drug and plasma proteins followed by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) at the same university in 1985. Since 1986, she worked as a scientist at the National Institute of Agricultural Research (INRA) in Clermont-Ferrand in a Department focusing on Human Nutrition. Consequently, she became a Nutritionist and specialized her research on Sarcopenia and Aging in 1994. She applied MRS to metabolic pathways of amino acids in muscle during aging. Dr. Meynial-Denis earned a second PhD in 1998 on amino acid fluxes throughout skeletal muscle during aging. She was mainly interested in the effect of glutamine supplementation in advanced age. She was a member of the French Society of Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition (SFNEP), of the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) and of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (IAGG). She was a regular reviewer for various international nutrition journals.
